Post Idle problems
I have a 36pd which I have just added a mm exhaust I'm having a problem with the idle when the clutch is engaged (this is not in the water ) it will die unless I stay on the throttle but I think my probelm might be the new fuel pump I added I think it's either my putting enough fuel or it's over flowing the carb its rated 1 to 3.5 psi any suggestions on what to do
